Microsphere Localization Using PET/MRI or PET/CT in Patients Following Radioembolization

Phase 1
Terminated
Conditions
Liver Neoplasms
Interventions
Device: PET/MR
Device: PET/CT
Registration Number
NCT01744054
Lead Sponsor
Washington University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

The successful localization of the y90 microspheres by PET/MR and/or PET/CT scans would be a useful tool in individualizing patient care after the radioembolization procedure. The information from a PET/MR or PET/CT scan would allow for early evaluation of the technical success of the procedure.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluate y90-PET/MRI and PET/CT for potential on reporting presence of extrahepatic deposition of microspheres1 day (one time event for patient)

A diagnostic radiologist and a nuclear medicine physician will evaluate the images and will determine any presence of extrahepatic deposition of microspheres.

Evaluate y90-PET/MRI and PET/CT for potential on reporting technical success of radioembolization1 day (one time event for patient)

A diagnostic radiologist and a nuclear medicine physician will evaluate the images and will determine whether technical success of the procedure can be determined. They will rate the images if they are 'adequate' to report on these two measures.
